| Note | The witDetail element should be regarded as a
                        specialized type of note element; it is synonymous with
                        <note type='witnessDetail'>, but  differs from the
                        in the omission of some attributes
                        seldom applicable to notes within critical apparatus, and in the
                        provision of the wit attribute, which permits an
                        application to extract all annotation concerning a particular
                        witness or witnesses from the apparatus. It also differs in that
                        the location of a witDetail element is not significant
                        and may not be used to imply the point of attachment for the
                        annotation; this must be explicitly given by means of the
                        target attribute.
